Excellent question, Allen.
In The Sarmatians: 600 BC -- AD450 (Brezinski & Mielczarrek, Osprey Publishing, 2002), a diagram on page 44 of an assymetric bow, case, and two quivers is ascribed "after Legacy of the Desert King, China National Silk Museum, Hangzhou, 2000." That's not definitive, but is indicative.
Thanks.
